Questions about OBDLink adapters
Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2022 3:10 pm
Hi Harry,
I'm considering getting an OBD sensor for HLT. I'm going to choose from OBDLink series based on availability at my location. Here are my two questions on this:
1. I'm using external GPS senser via bluetooth (SkyPro XGPS160). If I connetct the OBD sensor using bluetooth also, will they work at the same time? And how about the performance, since both devices have relatively high update rates? If the performance will be reduced, I'll abandon OBD sensor with no hesitation because an accurate time and position is far more important.
2. I browsed the offical website of OBDLink, and some posts on HLT forum and found that MX+ and LX has the same performance on HLT. The additional and extended function of MX+ will not be used by HLT currently. But it seems that LX cannot work with iOS devices. So how about CX? I also found it in the supported sensor list in HLT. Since it's more budget-friendly, how about it's performace when used with HLT on track?
Thank you! I really appreciate your help!
